Every action we do with love and dedication brings us salvation.
Don’t you see that the world has changed
We are all in danger, we feel shortchanged
We are glad to see that the days pass
Just doing our work, without broken glass
People have changed their perception
They are active, but they have no vision
Before the war everything was serene
Who knows what tomorrow will be on the scene
The world has become smaller and younger
Despite the wealth, everywhere there is hunger
Families know and try to help at any age
In the neighborhood, the town or the village
I'm not saying that in the old days things were better
Today they die older, don’t take me by the letter
When I grew up schools were no less rigid
Today we look into space to find what we did
People are fed propaganda of any flavor
Despite the flow of data there is nothing to savor
Human beings do not know how to get ahead
Each one in his or her little corner is spread
It feels comfortable sitting on a chair
Television takes over their lives and they feel it’s fair
To stay in good health, we must eat with measure
Avoid what disturbs us, even if it gives us pleasure
It may seem that we depend on the government
While in ourselves rests and slumbers our talent
The news of the day appear inescapable
We forget all of what we are capable
Every action we do with love and dedication
Heals suffering, brings daylight and salvation
Let grace into our hearts with steadiness
Let’s sow love, we will reap happiness
My favorite line, "Every action we do with love and dedication
Heals suffering, brings daylight and salvation
Let grace into our hearts with steadiness
Let’s sow love, we will reap happiness"
You say much here. Yes, it seems like the world changed overnight and yes we must help each other along this path we call life. That's what we're here for, I believe.
You are so right, the world is changing quite rapidly, and for all the troubles that we see daily in the news, for the better. Like it is always been, most people are trying to get by… Trying to make a living in a difficult world where they have little or no say in how the world around them operates. For those that are able to retire and vegetate in front of the television, they are the lucky ones.
I like what you say about giving. I find it an obligation to help out wherever I can and however I can. I can't save the world, but by working with a few that I know and making their lives better, I feel quite fulfilled and not just staring at the television until I'm gone.
This poem tells a realistic view of the ways in which the world and the life we once knew has changed, nothing stays the same. Even after
generations has passed and gone, this world or the universe as we know
it just keeps on turning. Loved reading every verse of this poem. Have A Great Day.

Could not say it better!

A great and caring message all should read. We should all have compassion to care about others and make a difference.

The price...
Indeed, unconditional, uncorrupted, love is the key. And being self sufficient, yet always carrying you injured brothers.
